By the way another thing I've come to hate is configure or make scripts which download stuff. This is really annoying if you want to build self-contained packages. Or if the downloaded material ends up being not available, or if you're not always connected to the internet.
If I have 5 guests, I can go to a supermarket and buy 5 beers.

If I have 5000 guests, I have to find a beer maker who can make and deliver 5000 beers by a given date. The difference in the challenge is obvious, to any rational observer.

But sure, from far enough, both things can be described as "buying beers for guests".

My previous employer went all in on ditching their RHEL boxes for CentOS. I wonder how that change is treating them now. Given this change by Red Hat/IBM, was it wasted effort?

I wonder if they’ll now switch back to RHEL.
A top male athlete can sustain 500W power for an hour. I wouldn't have high hopes for your sewing machine generator.
...yes? That's all shorting. You have to pay the borrow costs as long as you're borrowing the stock.

But how is having short interest of 140% of the float different from having short interest of 80% of the float?
Idk, sounds like a good sneaky way to introduce tarifs
Reminds me of elsagate. Similar technique, different target and purpose.
And that interest can get very VERY high - the cost to borrow shares when no shares are available can run to $shareprice A DAY (see "hard to borrow").

>But one guy taking a negative expected value bet and winning big doesn't really help all the other little guys on WSB who got roped in to buying GME at 100+ today

I don't disagree with your post overall, but do want to give some credit to the particular user being discussed. He had a solid bull value thesis that was well thought out and not at all based on memes, with the short squeeze potential being a mere afterthought. He has a great youtube channel where he explains his thesis in-depth. While he posts occasionally on WSB he does not seem to fit the wild gambler image that WSB has.

I don't have enough experience or knowledge to speak intelligently on whether his play was actually negative or positive expected value but it was not a random gamble.

Just felt the need to throw this out there because with all the attention this is getting I've seen him unfairly (in my opinion) being grouped with the admittedly large amount of people who are essentially just gambling.
> A diverse country having a non diverse work force make up is odd statistically.

I agree, but I would also add that a company exhibiting the exact diversity representation as the surrounding country is also very odd, statistically.

VAT is not a big change - you won't pay the EU member state VAT and instead will pay UK VAT. It's basically neutral, or in a few countries cheaper.

Custom fees are the big problem, which is basically profiteering from Royal Mail and co. I really doubt it costs £8-12 to clear a small package through UK customs (especially long term when the systems are bedded in more). For example, Amazon doesn't charge customs duties on goods from the EU coming into the UK, so my guess is it is actually very low cost. My hope is that over time there will be some competitiveness on customs fees.

The "sustainable" "collapse" (again, what does this mean? end of imports including oil? large scale political turmoil with no clear winner?) level of Australian population would probably be larger than Aboriginal pre-invasion times (estimated 700k?) but not much more than that if you lose access to mechanically pumped water. It's not a very habitable place but the introduction of European crops and animals has irrevocably improved this. You're still looking at the likely death of nineteen out of every twenty Australians in this scenario.

(actually, having thought about this, the "collapse" scenario I'd be most worried about in Australia is average temperatures above human survivable levels plus wildfires. Not so much a collapse as a thorough incineration)

You have your terminology completely mixed up.
Read up on the ANLF. The ANLF structured their organization such that nobody had good knowledge of the organization except the portion of the org chart immediately above and below them. This annoyed the French because they would capture the grunts and it was a hell of a lot of work to work their way up to knowing who the leaders were since you'd need an unbroken chain of N people willing to narc on their boss. This is made harder because people are more likely to narc on their boss's boss who they don't really know vs their boss who they have a hack of a working relationship with but that depends on knowing who your boss's boss is. Be advised that I glossed over some details in my original comment.

I agree with this statement.
I had two majors: Religion (history/study of, not theology) and Computer Science.

My Religion degree, esp. when we got to things like post-modern criticism and Hegel, were leap-years more difficult than anything we had to study in computer science. So, yeah, I take umbrage to people saying that the humanities are easy.

(The Religion degree was incredibly interesting, too, though ultimately not terribly practical for anything but law, and I wasn't really interested in doing that.)
These remarks are presented for the interest of passerbys, not because the comment I reply to has merit and deserves them.

Counterpoint 1: AMD was a chipmaker with skilled engineers on staff and a growth story where they could seize market share with better technology. Gamestop is a retailer with retail clerks on staff and a story where increasing competition from PC and console app stores slowly eats away at their market share. Exact same thing, right?

Counterpoint 2: Saying the price target is wrong is one thing, and may in many circumstances be eminently defensible. Saying the correct price is $50-$150 is another.

Counterpoint 3: This exemplifies the thinking going on here. "I don't understand the stock market and think someone is screwing us over. Let's define our own alternate reality, and gang up on them for revenge! Revolution!" Last time we saw that show was January 6. For a few people, who get out at the right time, this will be a much more successful revolution, but on the whole, it succeeds only with a transient disruption, and harm the individual would-be revolutionaries the most.
We probably won't ever agree, but that gives me some things to think about or at least a greater understanding. Thank you, I appreciate it a lot.

I do certainly agree that corporations ought to be less of a liability shield for things that would send a citizen to prison!
Mastercard are likely to not change the FPS fee as Vocalink is easy to supplant.

There are bigger issues at play set out for this coming decade. For example card not present transactions are going to have their fees jacked up (internet transactions) vs in store ones. The real battle will be against this.

Chargebacks not being possible are beneficial too, it depends on your merchant. For instance topping up your brokerage account with chargebacks possible would be very problematic.

I was surprised moving to Germany, the default Visa card you get is a 30 day rolling credit card, aka charge card. Visa Debit and Mastercard's equivalent don't seem to be popular. And even less popular is a full-on credit card. A much healthier attitude there I believe.

This is good news but due to the nature of widely adopted open-source projects, they are still vulnerable to a similar situation. It is listed that AWS is one of the sponsors of the Rocky Linux. Recently we have seen what happened between elastic and AWS. So, AWS could also pull an IBM and decide to drop it or tie it tightly with AWS services etc.

It is a difficult situation in general and it is a shame that this was one of the most used distros in servers.

Almost every pragmatic implementation of semantic reasoning I've done involved both of the same modifications (closed world and unique names). A couple efforts used SPARQLX, something I created that was a binary form of SPARQL+SPARQLUpdate+StoredProcedures+Macros encoded using Variable Message Format. This was about 18 years ago, before SPARQL and SPARQL update merged, and before FLWOR. One of these days I'll recreate it again. The original work is not available, and I was not allowed to publish.

Oh, and I forgot two things, SPARQLX had triggers, was customized for OWL DLP, and had commands for custom import and export using N3 (I was a big fan of the cwm software).

As a patient hobbyist collector I try to buy one of each. My goal was to learn the history and theory of each one, explore the magnificent design, measure the actual timing accuracy, read as many old books or articles about them, and in some cases meet the designers of the clocks. Atomic timekeeping, like computing, is a new enough field that a few of the old timers are still around.

For the valley-mountain gravitational time dilation experiments that I've done I use 5071A cesium clocks. Even though 25+ years old, no commercial clock works better for this portable application. That is to say, rubidium clocks and older model cesium clocks are not quite good enough to detect these tiny relativistic effects with confidence.

Others here have mentioned prices. Surplus rubidium atomic clocks can be found for as low as $100 on eBay. Surplus cesium clocks range from $1k to $10k, depending on model and condition. Factory new 5071A are close to $100k so no one I knows is crazy enough to do that. If you are very patient and lucky on eBay you will find 5071A for as low at $2k to $5k once every couple of years.
I agree. I typed this hurriedly and didn’t mean to imply that it was individuals faults in particular. It’s certainly society’s fault at large as you observe. Perhaps a bygone generation would have been more fiscally conservative. It’s absolutely predatory with respect to universities jacking up tuition costs with nothing to show for it with respect to educational outcomes.
If I have to write the rules myself, I'll do it in a language and toolset that are widely-known and well-defined, not in incantations that will only work on a proprietary system.
> why don't coffee machines that can start on a timer have a backup battery for their clock?

As a European the thought wouldn't have come to me. Brownouts just don't happen (see this 0.5% frequency dip making headlines), and a blackout is a once-a-decade event for any given house (probably even less frequent than that).

So your answer is probably that demand for that feature is far from universal, and a coffee machine is much lower stakes than for example an alarm clock.
I'm a bit unclear on how. So you have your ecommerce store charging in EUR, and you pay with your Monzo/Starling/Revolut whatever and get the interbank rate to GBP. How is the store going to pass costs onto consumers in a way other than shipping costs? You can't use currency because the bank has given you the interbank rate (and cut off the card's conversion fee).

Also btw if you let your card processor convert currency for you they're going to be even worse off as an EU store owner - Stripe charges 2% extra to convert your currency for example. So your fees are now going to be over 3.5%.. best to leave it in EUR.

You need to run an ecommerce store to understand its very hard to ask a customer their country first. Unless you're Apple..

Also when you run an ecommerce store you want US customers too, so your UK problem is equivalent to your US problem.
To go in another off-topic direction...of course I mainly did it because I wanted to. I had a view about how to teach/learn typing that the popular typing programs then didn't seem to have. When you're learning typing for the first time, IMO it's fundamentally a kinesthetic endeavor. It's more important to focus on burning the motor pattern of moving your finger from the home row to the key you're typing and back to the home row than remembering where the letters are placed on the keyboard. (Of course you have to also remember where the letters are, but that will happen automatically in the process of doing the former.) So I wanted to take this into account and have my students type things like this:

fff ggg fgf gfg ffgg fggf gffg

jjj hhh jhj hjh jjhh jhhj hjjh

This forces the student to exercise that movement pattern in a way that just telling them to put their fingers on the home row and type English words does not.

So the above sentence you quoted was a an over-simplification for story telling purposes and not the whole story. :)
The unreasonable effectiveness of simple HTML

In the UK (and I think most other EU states), if you purchase on credit card you get a lot of additional protection if the product/service is not as described, the company goes out of business, etc for purchases over £100.

It's actually pretty reckless using debit cards for larger purchases for this reason, especially given the current economic climate. You should (IMO) always pay with a credit card then pay the full balance off via direct debit every month.
OpenBSD kept making snide remarks at FreeBSD for not keeping the pf codebase in sync. FreeBSD also didn't import the newest version the last time they synced because a slightly older version was faster.

Then FreeBSD hard forked pf and made it multithreaded.

Now FreeBSD's pf is the fastest implementation of pf but is missing the latest features/syntax and may have some bugs that were already fixed.

Meanwhile IPFW is still faster than pf anyway, so I don't know why people even care.
I've always found it emblematic of the basic problems of this community that they choose to a communicate through mailing lists with an online interface that looks crap no matter how you try to view it.

I think the term "Datalog" the prolog subset, has been pretty much replaced with "Datalog" the recursive consjunctive query fragment with recursion (and sometimes stratified negation) term.

Actually, Israel could not really negotiate because they are quite small and do not produce the vaccine locally, so had no leverage at all.

What happened is what always happens when you really want something but are not in a position to negotiate: You end up paying a lot of money. Israel is said to be paying $47 for the Pfizer vaccine while the US are paying $19.50, and the EU... $14.76. [1]

That guy bought and held GME since 2019 at ~$5 who yolo'd $53k with call options. Just one of many who took a diamond-handed bet on a lowly priced stock to be the 0.0001% of those who became multi-millionaires as soon as the short were squeezed up to $155 a share. Well played to that guy and others who didn't sell and got in very early.

As soon as it's reported on the news, for that stock at least it is probably too late to get in.

> more than any of the jealous fucks here will make in their lifetime working their miserable engineering jobs and afraid to take any risks in life

I'm afraid you're spot on. But I'm sure that some may say it is less risky to work at those FAANMG companies than it is to go all in your life-savings into meme stocks. (TSLA, GME, etc.)

On the other hand, building startups is also very risky, via the VC route or bootstrapped route. Depending IF you attract VCs to invest in it, its either you get acquired for >10x or IPO (might become a multi-m/billionaire), or you return their money or go completely bust.

Some play it safe whilst they watch others take risks.
Not only do we share some common perception, we're also all real. We are part of the universe. So to say people are subjective or that imagination is imaginary or that reality is an illusion for the purpose of dismissing them from reality is all wrong. You need a model that is more inclusive that describes it all with physics as the premise. For example, a dream requires a sleeping biological brain full of memories drawn from physical experiences.

Truth isn't reality itself in the physical sense. But the word "apple" isn't an actual apple either in the physical sense. Yet, for the purposes of language, it is. And that is the exact extent to which truth is reality in language. When we claim truth, we claim to be making a statement of reality. If that statement includes God, then your reality includes God. If it includes only physical evidence, then your reality is based on physical evidence. We can align our realities scientifically by aligning them with science. But again, based on your life, your work, and your beliefs, your reality will deviate. That's just part of what makes us all unique.

But as you say, our unique realities are still valuable and real. Though error prone as they may be, they are real reality drawn from a real life. It's not separate just because they contradict. That's why our ability to communicate our truths is cital, and Free Speech is sacrosanct.
If this can happen to CentOS, do we have to fear a comparable fate for Fedora? I've been using it for the last year, and it has been a nice change, but I wouldn't want it to die out because of strategy decisions. On the other hand, Fedora and RHEL don't seem to be in direct competition.
Is it TrustArc? I remember having a similar experience with their pop-up, for example on Oracle's website when I'm looking for Java docs: https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/

> EU is laughing at us

I assure you we're not, most of us aren't at least. I feel sorry for everyone involved, including the EU.

I think the "throw that form in the bin" from B. Johnson last year was a low point of politics everywhere in the world and was a tell of a profound lack of empathy. I know some people will feel deseperate because of the new barriers (the Covid crisis did not help at all tbh), and luckily this one sentence is old enough so that not that many people will remember, but this is the kind of "advice" that can push a desperate person a little bit too far.

"I'm just joking" doesn't really work when you're an adult.
That depends on the location and philosophy of the new country. If it's some apolitical organization who is not intent to hurting anyone, I doubt any politician in any country will be able to make a case to declare war on a country of perhaps a few thousand people.

A terrorist organization country might be blown to bits or the terrorists captured by which country they are against in no time.
